Well, this is weird, but Astro.com, a site that looks like very trustable, is showing a weird ascendant to me.

Every other site I go they say I have virgo rising. And when I calculate by myself - I'm not an expert in it though - It says I have virgo rising too. And makes sense, I do have a virginian personality at first sight.

But Astro.com says I'm Leo riging.

And it's very confusing to me, so I'm wondering if this site calculate the right ascendant for you guys! Please answer me

Astro.com has the most accurate astrological calculations I've come across. Your ascendant is on the cusp of two signs, so the other sites you've used are rounding down to the closest degrees. Astro.com uses the exact degree down to minutes and seconds to determine the ascendant.

Thank you! I actually like leo rising, but I wasn't sure if it was right. My rising sign is or on 12º Leo or 19º virgo, not close to the cusp, that's why I was so impressed... but thanks anyway

And there is another thing I forgot to ask, they consider summer time when they calculate it?

What`s your birthdata including time and place?
I can check in Solar Fire.
But usually astro.com has it right, though I know quite a lot of people who don´t identify with their ASC-sign, which doesn`t always means it is wrong.

Some sites say my Rising is Sagittarius, and others say it's Scorpio. Since the Sag is what I found first, I go with that along with the Scorp Moon. It fits me much better having the flamboyant attitude outwardly and very emotional underneath. The sites that say I'm Scorp Rising and Aqu Moon do not describe me at all. The Aquarius Moon does not fit me at all, so I stay with my original findings of Sag&Scorp.

Maybe you got the "time wrong" or maybe other sites don't calculate "Daylight Saving" correctly - and that's where http://www.astro.com stands-out as being most accurate...

Astro.com is by far the most accurate there is.

I'd say that the others haven't taken the correct daylight saving time into consideration [as someone else has just pointer out]

Well your moon is either in Aquarius OR in Scorpio, and since they are so far away from each other, this is not even a question with unknown birthtime. You are either one or the other.

Also I`d take all these interpretations with more than just a grain of salt, most of them are way to generalistic to actually have any use other than understanding what a sign is "generally" about.

But putting it all into context of a chart,t hat is where the work of an astrologer comes in.

I told you my chart, Sun Sign Cap, Rising Sun Sag, Rising Moon Scorp. Ditto. The other sites that say the other are not accurate. I looked at my chart. I'm fine with these three, some of the other crap in it is not nothing to me. There's Aqua, Libra, Sag, Leo, and one site even said I had Taurus. I never seen that one before either. So I'll stick with my top three and forget the rest. I'm good with my basic main traits.

It`s okay if you don`t want to tell (the data).
